For 🇪🇺 to become climate neutral, we must reduce our emissions.
This means phasing out combustion engine vehicles that run on diesel or petrol and opting for clean alternatives.
Read our plans for all new cars and vans to be zero-emission from 2035➡: https://climate.ec.europa.eu/news-your-voice/news/fit-55-eu-reaches-new-milestone-make-all-new-cars-and-vans-zero-emission-2035-2023-03-28_en

Europe is on the road to zero emissions transport!
RT @TimmermansEU: With @EUCouncil’s final vote today the EU has taken an important step towards zero-emission mobility.
The direction is clear: in 2035 new cars and vans must have zero emissions. It brings a big contribution to climate neutrality by 2050 and is a key part of the #EUGreenDeal.
